Fort Worth weekly gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1887-05-13
THE WEEKLY GAZETTE FORT WORTH TEXAS FRIDAY MAY 49,

tends to degrade struggle ennobled by
patriotism and blood. Such disputation
as that between Davis and Beauregard
can do no possible good, but it does offer
opportunity for malicious criticism that
adds no glory to cause or honor to those
who gave it all on earth they had to give.
The Philadelphia Press comments on the
Davis-B eauregard dispute is commended
to the Houston Age:
The wordy war between Jefferson Davis and
General Beauregard goes onwi;h undated vto-
lence. Mr.. Davis has a strongly eDtrenched
battery on the bluff, which is pouring specific
allegations into the enemys lines with deadly
effect. while Beauregard's forces are returning
tremendous fire of qualified denials, cOwardly
evasions and explosive eXpletives. Mr.. Davis
has ordered his entire corps, consisting OF the
nine parts of speech, into action, and General
Beauregard, who personally supervlses al
drawings, has gone to the front at the head of
division of lying artillery. The carnage is
dreadful, the field being strewn with the man
gled remains of malicious Misrepresentation,
grOtesque errors, palpable perversions and
mean insinuaHons at this writing, however,
both commanders are personally uninJured,
and the conflict goes on with fierceness which
indicates that each is determined to hold his
position, even If it costs him every epithet he
has IN the world

rushed into the streets, and the excite
ment for the time was intense. The
railroad agent at Torres, Sonora, reports
that the highest cliff of Chuate noun
tain fell with q deafening noise, aud
clouds Of dust were seen for several
miles.
ANOTHER ERUPTION.
TUCSON, A. T., May st is believed
that volcano is in active operation in
the San Jose mountains, on the border
OF Sonora, Mex, about sevenJy-tive miles
southwest of here. Yesterday afternoon
black curling smoke was plainly visible.
All last night the fires were
intermittent, bursting into bright light
and then apparently dying down only to
burst out again. The true state of af-
fairs is not known here yet. From g.
private telegram from Fort Huachua this
morning it is learned that General For
sythe, commanding the post, would head
an investigation commission. Advices
from Pantano, Critten, Globe and else
where show that the earthquake has been
general throughout Southern Arizona.
In Tucson, while there was no serious
damage done, there is no part of the city
but shows its effects, 1t will be some
time before the full effect of the earth
quake in the Santa Catalina mountains
can be learned, as the range is one of the
most rugged and difficult of access in
the Territory

LASSES AND LADS AT WAR.
Fifty Pretty Jersey Girls VIII Havo Naught
to do With Drinkers.

tl1Cy RFSIsS Jersey GIFTS VIII hdVO NauRnt
to do With Drinkers.
NEWTON, N. j., May 4.-The girls OF
this town who are famous throughout
Jersey for their beauty and sprightliness,
have organized league against drinking
and smoking. They have made solemn
agreement that breaths odOrous of whisky
shall not approach their lips, and arms
that are crossed before mahogany bar
shall not enCirCle their waists. At q meet
ing of the young women the prohibition
was extended by a narrow majority to
smoking, but some of the girls have dis
regarded this rule.
The society which the young women
have organized Is called the Maidens'
Mutual Protective Band. They had con-
stitution and bylaws printed, setting
forth that no smoker, drinker or fire.
quenter of billiard halls should cross the
threshold OF their homes. Over fifty of
the prettiest girls in town signed the
pledge and paid the small initiation ke.
a black list was prepared, on which was
entered the name Of every young man that
had loose habits or drank even glass of
beer.
Copies of the bylaws and pledge were
circulated among the young men. Several
very susceptible youths sWOre off at once
and gave up billiards, bowling and all the
liquid accomplishments of those games.
They have been prime faVOrites among
the damsels. They come and 60 at will
and are nearly eaten up by the fair sex.
But a great many young men revolted.
They held g meeting early this week in
one of the hotels and determined they
would not be dictated to.

TIE PROHIBITION CANVASS.

| The course of the Fort Worth GAZETTE in
this prohibition campaign is more to be com
mended than that of any leading daily paper in
the state. 1t has not accused everyone who
differed with the policy of that paper of being
fanatic or demagogue; has not traduced or
abused public men for taking position on one
side or the other; has not tried to introduce
rancor and bitterness into the campaign or
anything of that sort, but on the contrary has
pursued policy of fairness, moderation and
tolerance of opinion, and has maintained a
character for intelligent, high minded journal
ism throughout. There is no reason for disrup
ton of the Democratic party to be apprehended
when 1t has broad and liberal opponents like
THE GAzETTE.-IG Gainesville Register.
THE GAZETTE very highly appreciates
the commentator of the Register. THE
GAZETTE is Democratic and knows there
will be need of Democratic unity when
this election is over; THE GAZETTE
works for Fort Worth and Texas and
knows there will be need of unity among
all the workers when this election is over.
Therefore it was THE GAZETTE opposed
the mad folly of dragging the Democracy
as q party into this contest, and therefore
it is THE GAZETTE urges moderation and
tolerance and a fair, honest dis
CussiOn of prohibition. The question is
one over which men may be easily in
famed, and the debate should be restrict
edit the text without appeal to passion or
the first Thursday in August, its people
will be here and the Democratic party
will be here, and this canvass should be
conducted by all with view to the duties
and responsibilities and labors that will
devolve on ell when this election is over.
The man or the newspaper that attempts
to inject into this canvass extrsneous dis
cussion or to put the issue on false
pane is no true friend to Texas, to its
progress and to its Democracy. The
man or the newspaper that attempts to
apply to this canvass the small arts of
the politicaster is no true friend to Texas
The issue is clearly made up, and
all efforts to obscure it can only
tend to inaame the discussion and
madden the people while doing little to
affect the result. The party that sticks
closest to its text and guards the issue
most jealouslY from perversion will win
most friends ct the ballot-box; and the
party that distracts and divides the peo-
pie and infames them with Pedagogical
appeals and distortions of fact and per-
version OF motive and action, and ex-
cites men to elimination and recrimina-
ton, will lead the host that strikes the
earth with dull thud next August.
